Gravel Moves A Step Closer!

Dennis Kucinich is dropping out of the Presidential race, the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Will he endorse, as Duncan Hunter did? And will anyone notice, unlike when Duncan Hunter did?

My attitude about Kucinich running again this year was that after turning out to have been right four years earlier about the Iraq War, I couldn't begrudge him the right to hog the spotlight again -- but that I would object to him straggling on after the selection process gets serious, as he did last time around, shoving himself into the Kerry/Edwards contest. Good for him, stopping the vanity tour earlier this time.

Also, it seemed to me that he didn't really have anything to say this time. Maybe others saw it differently. (And no, I wasn't just distracted by his babealicious wife.)
